Deleting Modeling Results

Reading time


The result files can take up a lot of space on your hard drive, so we suggest deleting old results to keep things running smoothly. Deleting the folder manually can be tricky when multiple scenarios are already created and could result in a mistakenly deleted scenario. We recommend deleting the results through the Fenix+ interface.

Simulation results associated with a scenario are stored in the project directory …\Results\“Your_Scenario_ID”.

There are several ways to Remove modeling results within the program interface:

  1. For a single scenario within the Delete Scenario pop-up window, check the Also delete the modeling results checkbox.
  2. For a single scenario without deleting the scenario, you can use the Remove modeling results option, which could be found by right-clicking on the scenario name.
  3. For all previously deleted scenarios.
  4. For all scenarios.

Deleted simulation results cannot be recovered. Before deleting, make sure that all necessary data has been saved or exported.

For a single scenario

To delete simulation results for a specific scenario, follow these steps:

  1. Right-click the desired scenario name in the list. A dialog box will open.

  2. Select the check boxes for the simulation types whose results you want to delete. Simulation results are grouped by type: evacuation and fire.

  3. Confirm the deletion.

For all previously deleted scenarios

To delete simulation results for all scenarios previously deleted from the project, follow these steps:

  1. Select the Project menu item. A drop-down menu will appear.

  2. Select Remove modeling results.

  3. In the dialog box that opens, select Scenarios that are not available in the project.

  4. Confirm the deletion.

Deleting results for all scenarios

To delete simulation results for all scenarios, follow these steps:

  1. Select the Project menu item. A drop-down menu will appear.

  2. Select Remove modeling results.

  3. In the dialog box that opens, select All scenarios.
